Welcome to TheHarderTruths.net!
This blog is dedicated to challenging, questioning, and exposing the truth-claims and Christian principles espoused by many mainstream Christian leaders and representatives of the faith. Since the Bible remains unchanged and is the ultimate and reliable source of truth, this site focuses on what the Scripture says in contrast to other prevailing truth claims.
The Harder Truths was born out of a strong desire to encourage Christian musicians to maintain theological integrity within their lyrics. This desire led me to write my first article, “Christian Music Theology: Bad to Worse?” In it, I highlight my primary concerns and critically examine the theological claims made by certain Christian artists and groups who promote unbiblical truths. Since many individuals are not actively engaging with Scripture, the music they listen to may be the only Christian message they encounter. Therefore, it is essential for musicians to communicate a biblically sound message that does not mislead others or create misconceptions about God and His Word.
Since the publication of that first article, subsequent posts have followed. My intent is not to attack fellow believers, but to expose false teachings and exhort both Christians and those on the fringes of the faith. This process has significantly strengthened my own faith and spurred my personal spiritual growth.
I trust that the articles on this site will inspire you, and I pray they ignite a passion within you to live wholeheartedly for the Lord, in alignment with His Word.
